Recommended love songs for teenage girls: Classic and popular Japanese tracks (1–10)
I LOVE…Ofisharu Higedan Dism
This is the song that was chosen as the theme for the drama Love Lasts Forever.
It’s overflowing with love for someone special, with a desire to convey the words “I love you.” Official HIGE DANDism’s way of expression isn’t just about straightforwardly conveying feelings; there’s always a bit of clever craft that comes beforehand, which makes reading the lyrics enjoyable.
Their high-tone vocals may be striking, but there are other charms like that as well.
I hope everyone in their teens will watch the drama and feel that unique “Higedan-ness.”
Walking with youNovelbright
Novelbright has been making waves on social media and continues to broaden their activities.
Many young people are captivated by vocalist Takenaka’s high-tone voice.
“Walking with you” is a song that expresses positive feelings toward someone special.
With messages like “Your presence encouraged me” and “I want to be with you forever,” it truly conveys how important that person is.
The song is often performed at street live shows, and the ballad version is also very popular.
Teens, be sure to give that one a listen too.
You don’t listen to rock.aimyon
Aimyon, who has even performed on NHK’s Kōhaku Uta Gassen, has now become a singer-songwriter leading the Japanese pop scene.
No matter which track you listen to, her songs leave the impression that they’re all excellent.
“Kimi wa Rock nanka Kikanai” isn’t a ballad, nor is it an all-out rock tune—the comfortable, just-right groove feels great.
It’s an unrequited love song from the perspective of a boy living through his youth, expressing the pain and hardship of love in an indirect way.
That subtle, roundabout touch is so distinctly Aimyon, and it’s what makes so many people fall for her.
Give this song a listen and cheer on your lovestruck self.
LetterSHE’S
SHE’S, well-regarded among rock fans as a piano-rock band, has captivated many with their whisper-soft, thornless vocals.
“Letter” is a song wrapped in gentle warmth.
Within that kindness, it’s a song about wanting to become someone worthy of a precious person.
The feeling of “I regret hurting the one I love, yet I still want to feel love” is complicated, but surely relatable to some.
It’s a track I’d especially like students who are just awakening to love in their teens to hear.
Unopened LoveLeina
Leina is a currently active junior high school singer-songwriter.
Even as a middle schooler, her expressive power and vocal ability are outstanding, and she’s known for a voice that evokes deep emotion.
She’s a truly one-of-a-kind singer.
“Unopened Love” is a bittersweet unrequited love song.
The theme of unrequited love and Leina’s poignant delivery bring tears to your eyes.
I hope students—Leina’s peers—will understand and connect with her feelings.
Listen once, and you’ll empathize with Leina’s candid emotions and surely become hooked.

This song is also popular because it was used as the theme song for the drama “Akai Ito.” It’s a calm ballad, but since it’s a bittersweet love song, teenage girls who are experiencing unrequited love or have just gone through a breakup might want to give it a listen.
HAPPY BIRTHDAYback number
Back number is well-known for their love songs.
Their vocals and melodies are undeniably romantic.
Among them, the unrequited love song “HAPPY BIRTHDAY” expresses a bittersweet longing for someone you cherish.
It was also used as the theme song for the drama “A Story to Read When You First Fall in Love.” The spot-on words and feelings about unrequited love likely pierce the hearts of those experiencing it.
When you delve into the lyrics, you’ll find negative expressions scattered throughout, which only heighten the sense of poignancy.
When you’re in unrequited love, you may feel restless and frustrated with your own emotions.
This is a song I’d like you to listen to when you feel that way.
